Https and cookies...

[song2siren]

Hello

I'm using cookies to track users around a shopping cart application, but I cannot seem to retrieve a cookie value on the secure part of my site.

I'm using the following code to either generate a new ID or retrieve an existing one:

Public Function GetShoppingCartId() As String

Dim _guidUserID As GUID
Dim objCookie As HttpCookie

objCookie = HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies( "ConfUserID" )
If objCookie Is Nothing Then
_guidUserID = Guid.NewGuid
objCookie = New HttpCookie( "ConfUserID", _guidUserID.ToString )
objCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddYears( 3 )
HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies.Add( objCookie )
Return HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies( "ConfUserID" ).Value
Else
Return objCookie.Value
End If

End Function

However, on any HTTPS pages an new ID and cookie is always generated. Any help suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
